RE: Memoir Monday #24 (8/19-8/25) - How did you get your first job?

in #memoirmonday5 months ago

Those sounds like some great memories even though they might come with a bit of pain too. It wasn't my first job, but I feel the same way about Radio Shack. It sucked at times, but I learned so much working there. Besides mowing lawns for my neighbor and Grandma, I am not sure I could pin down my first official job. If I had to guess, it was probably as a camp counselor right out of high school. Those were definitely some interesting times!

They are really good memories. As I was writing this I was stricken by how different the world has become. I used to really like Radio Shack. So this was the genesis of your I.T. career! We had one at a strip mall on Broad Street a few miles from where we lived. It was always interesting dealing with the public, it's probably even more so now. There's a lot of entitlement out there now.
